Yes - change of plan
Thanks all.
We have now had a total rethink of our trip. We are going to New York and California next summer and had a complicated series of flights worked out. We are now doing MAN - EWR then a few days later EWR - SFO returning to EWR from SFO 13 days later, and three days later still returning home EWR - MAN. Will have car in CA for touring.
The wait in EWR for the flight to BOS when we arrive from SFO in the morning was so long that if we picked up a car, we would over half way there before the plane took off. And my relatives are south of Boston anyway so it makes sense to drive up, stay two nights and drive back down in time for the 22:00 flight home.
Anyone have good suggestions for a ten day road trip in CA with three children?
